I wasn't thrilled by this but the idea wasn't too bad. The moment I caught sight of her sitting on a bench, I had to convince myself at great lengths to walk over to her. As I drew closer, I could see her immersed in a book, the sounds of music streaming from her earphones. I took a deep breath, trying to muster up the courage to speak to her about my proposal.
In my mind, I rehearsed the words I wanted to say to her, hoping to come across as confident and convincing. "Okay, Owen, it is just like how you practiced yesterday. Ask her if she is willing, if she's not, which she definitely won't, negotiate," I reminded myself. My heart skipped a beat the moment I was a meter away. I was contemplating on reaching out to grab her attention. What if I ended up embarrassing myself the third time? What if she outright rejects the offer?

Broken But Yours
Three years ago, Amber Milburn met Chris Collins...a senior who was arrogant, impossible, and far too good at getting under her skin. She eventually fell for him. He crushed those feelings badly... despite clearly feeling something himself. They walked away with pride intact and hearts slightly damaged. Now, three years later, Amber unknowingly lands an internship at his company. Chris is now the bossy, perfectly polished CEO who likes his coffee black, his desk spotless, and his life under control. Amber is chaotic sunshine in heels...funny without trying, stubborn by nature, and somehow, always fainting when he's just an inch too close. He likes order. She is disorder. He gives instructions. She argues with them. He wants distance. She keeps ending up in his space. Somewhere between office disasters, stolen glances, possessive moments, family chaos, loyal friends, and a history neither of them truly buried... old sparks begin to feel dangerously new again. Because the problem with unfinished stories is? They have a habit of starting over. *** "How could you do this to me? Why make me sign that contract?" I asked furiously. He looked up from his laptop and smirked. "As far as I remember, I didn't make you sign the contract, did I? You signed it on your own. If I am not wrong, it is entirely your fault for signing without reading the documents properly. The first rule in business is: never sign any papers without reading them properly." "I deny," I said. "Your wish, Ms. Milburn. You can walk out of the company anytime and meet my lawyers in court tomorrow," he said, leaning back in his chair. "You're cruel, Chris." "It's Mr. Collins for you, Ms. Milburn. I hope you know basic etiquette and professionalism, or your business degree is useless." "I hate you!" "Now, if you are done wasting my time, go and bring me my coffee. No sugar. Now out!" These three months were going to be the most disturbing and stressful three months of my life.Tamamlanmış Hikaye
His Appointed Wife
"What if the right person is also your Mr. So Wrong?" *** Her lips touched and teased and coaxed him and he felt her touch in every cell and every bone. Soft and supple, her body was around him. Everywhere. She was everywhere. He was hungry for more, but he couldn't break this sweetness. Shy and timid, she kissed like herself. All so innocent, but incredibly passionate. The kiss was gentle, yet also fire. And he couldn't help anymore. He wanted more. He pushed her back gently and her back hit the wall and he pressed himself to her amazing body. "Ah." He thought. "Can I really stay away after this?" "I can't." She thought. ~~~ A guy, a girl, a contract and sizzling sexual tension brewing between them. Is it possible for them to come out of it with zero casualties? ~~~ "I'll give you a place to stay and I'll pay you, all you have to do is to pretend to be my wife for an year, in return. It is that easy." Or is it? With a contract, their deal is filed, signed and sealed with a kiss. Finally, Alexandra will have a home, have someone to back her up in the fight of getting back what is legally hers. Logan will have the revenge he wants against his ex-girlfriend, Stacy. Gambling with the matters of heart is just dangerous. You might hit the jackpot or you will be neck deep in heartbreak. It all depends on the cards that have been dealt to you. And they will both realize it soon enough, when their heart take over their brain. ___Tamamlanmış Hikaye![[excerpt] Chaos & the Geek (Grace Grayson Security Book 1)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/211189750-256-k696656.jpg)
[excerpt] Chaos & the Geek (Grace Grayson Security Book 1)
*now available on all retailers* Amber How do you politely refuse when the only guy to star in any of your dirty fantasies has just offered to put you up for the foreseeable future and your brother's just accepted like you were in fact still thirteen and couldn't make decisions for yourself? You don't. And, you end up with a roommate who wears a very good elegant mask over the rough and tumble, bad boy core I remember far too well. Only, it's ten years later and I'm even nerdier than I used to be. It's ten years later and I couldn't look worse. It's ten years later and I can't keep one guy. It's ten years later and my brother still teases me mercilessly in front of him. It's ten years later and Kit somehow looks even better than the guy I spent my formative years crushing on. Except, there might just be a smouldering heat in Kit's eyes that suggests he's not quite as out of my league as I thought. Just maybe, this geek is about to get a whole lot of chaos. Kit When I find out about my best mate's little sister's situation, the offer is out of my mouth before I can stop it; Hawk's like a brother to me even if Amber's never looked twice at me. I could never tell if she was scared of me or hated me. But the deal is done. She's going to bring her bedraggled self upstairs to my penthouse and live with me for as long as she needs. I see the pain she hides away, I see the lack of confidence despite how smart she is, how good. If there's something I've learned, it's that confidence makes all the difference. So, it becomes my mission to help Amber find her confidence. But I find more than confidence in her and suddenly I'm seeing my best mate's little sister completely differently. Except, there might be something in the way she smiles at me that gives me hope I'm not as far out of her league as I thought. It might just be time that this chaos gets a little geek.Tamamlanmış Hikaye

So I Harry Anderson, reject you Amelia Knight as my mate." My heart feels like it was being cut in half and it wouldn't go away. I felt the tears in my eyes but I wasn't going to give him that satisfaction, so collected myself and growled. I guess he expected me to break in tears Oh he's so wrong!

It was kind of weird that he could see me doing something and read me like a book before I could even realize I was doing it. I felt my heart pound in my chest. "Well, it's just this whole pretending to date you thing," I shrugged, "How far do we have to take it? Do we have to do it in front of our friends?

I'm coming I'm coming! I just needed to grab something." I said walking out to them. "Is that a book?" "Yeah- I really need to know what happens! I'm almost done with it, once I finish I'll watch the game don't worry." I assured the two of them. "Okay want ever you say." We left to go to the game finding a close-to-the-front seat. The three of us sat, we already bought some drinks and snacks. The game soon started and I began to read. "Player down!" Someone yelled as they ran a crossed the field. My head snapped up to get a look and I saw number 22 sitting up with one leg bent and the other laying on the ground. He seamed calm. "Alright, let's get you up," some one said kneeing next to number 22. "No no, I'm fine. Help them, they may be out, he is not responding to me." 22 insisted. Once the others heard this they ran to the other person, 85 from the other team. 22 glanced at the bleachers, briefly making eye contact with me, he then quickly looked back, almost as if doing a double take. He held the eye contact this time, I gave him a small smile and he gave me a sweet smile. "He smiled at you!" "It was just a smile," I said going back to my book. "You have a crush." "You definitely do, but we won't say anything, yet." I rolled my eyes at both of them. They were right, no, maybe. He was cute, the way his hair fell, and how he put the other player before himself. I thought it was cute.

Between The Lines
I took my usual seat in the back corner, far away from the line of fire that always seemed to follow Mr. Montgomery's gaze. I tried to disappear into the safety of my textbook, but his piercing blue eyes seemed to find me anyway, as if daring me to challenge him once more. "Ah, Miss Taylor, how lovely of you to grace us with your presence," Mr. Montgomery quipped, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he glanced up from his papers. "I trust you've come prepared to dazzle us with your unparalleled enthusiasm for Shakespeare?" I resisted the urge to roll my eyes, opting instead for a tight-lipped smile that did little to disguise my annoyance. "Of course, Mr. Montgomery," I replied, my voice dripping with equal parts sarcasm and defiance. "I live for the thrill of dissecting centuries-old plays written in a language I can barely understand." Mr. Montgomery's lips twitched in amusement, a hint of a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. "Ah, a true lover of literature, I see," he remarked, his tone teasing. "Well, let's see if we can't expand your horizons a bit today, shall we?"Tamamlanmış Hikaye
Rejecting Alexa
"I could never hate you," I blurt out. Her head snaps up, and I see the hope twinkling in her eyes, which made it harder to say, "But it's just my wolf who wants you. That's what I mean. I really can't hate you, but I can sure as hell try. I can't stand to see your face, or to hear your voice. I'm so disgusted by you that it will start to affect my wolf. I can't stand to hear your heartbeat, you're better off dead," I whisper to her, forcing my words to be filled with hate and resentment. But it was a lie. I've already fallen for her * Meet Tristan, the egotistical Alpha that just can't admit he has feelings for his mate. Meet Alexa, the girl who didn't want a mate in the first place.

Saving Trevor
For once, in the world of books, it's not the damsel in distress- it's the damoiseau in distress. Thankfully, this one has his knight in shining armor waiting for him to come around. ••• "So, I have a proposal," Amelia announces. We sit on the tree stump, facing each other. The sun is in the middle of setting so there's a nice glow that casts on us. Amelia's green eyes are illuminated by the sun, and her skin practically glistens in the light making an emphasis on how perfect her skin actually is. The breeze whipping past makes me notice her hair is down and pin straight. She smiles expectantly at me and I snap out of the trance I'm caught in by her natural beauty. "Right," I clear my throat. "What's your proposal?" "We hang out every day for the next two weeks. Don't worry, no sleep overs. A few days we'll meet at my place, others we'll meet at yours. You can meet my friends, I'll meet yours, and we'll get to know each other. At some point you'll either find yourself and start to accept me, or you'll still feel completely lost in yourself and you can reject me."Tamamlanmış Hikaye
